The problem in a large codebase is keeping consistency when upgrading. I upgraded a codebase of approx 100 kloc from Java 7 to Java 8 a couple of years ago. As I didn't want mixed patterns for the same thing throughout the code base I replaced most of the loops with their streaming equivalent. I had the luxury of having the budget for doing so. Mixing patterns of newer language features alongside older ones can make the code base hard to read. |
